Whatever your complaint about his coverage is - and he does a fine job - do you realize that if he covered Olympic sports fulltime that would likely mean no beat writer for Butler? The IndyStar's newsroom is getting smaller, not larger.

Any of you who live in the Indianapolis area should be wary of this potential merger of Gannett, the Star's publisher, and GateHouse Media. If you think The Star is bad now, you'll be pining for how it is today once GateHouse's practices start getting put into place.

The IndyStar doesn't let him cover Butler fulltime. They have a fulltime IU writer and pull Purdue coverage from the reporter at the Lafayette Journal & Courier.

I seriously started to think JMM was injured or sick the other night based on the lack of his name ever being mentioned in the Star’s social media. It’s not David’s fault but the Star was touting they had 5 or 6 staffers covering the game and not one mentioned JMM.
